What is Rossi's FIA driver ranking? Silver? If it is he's definitely someone BMW is going to be interested in keeping, since he's legitimately fast and also fills their lower ranked driver slot in a Pro-Am set up. However he can only pull that off for this year I think. Once you have 3 years of full time racing you go up to Gold ranking and this is his 2nd year of 4 wheel racing.

Lol if Tom Brady becomes a gentleman driver for a gt team, he's going to make that Russian dude from Blancpain GT series look like a racing legend

Apparently MSR got clapped by IMSA, and lost all winnings and their points, as well as picking up a 50k penalty. One of their engineers was apparently falsifying telemetry data somehow, and IMSA found out.

WindyMan posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-OrHpCcuGs Possibly someone within the team (MSR) knew that it was breaking safety regulations, and tipped off HPD. IIRC, HPD informed IMSA of the safety violation once they found out, and IMSA took action by penalizing MSR. There'd be a very good reason why if the whistleblower was within the team they're not willing to reveal themselves. Running below a minimum spec for your tire pressures can be dangerous as it greatly increases a chance of a blowout of one or more tires at speed, especially when you're talking about the high banks of Daytona. Sure you get more heat more quickly, but the stresses on the tire are different than a properly inflated one. On the 2nd or 3rd team thing, MP is the first one i've heard say anything about it, so it will be very interesting to see what happens there. I am sure though that IMSA will be digging into teams data to find out what's going on to prevent this from happening again.

The Opel Manta is not a gag, the foxtail is my friend Manta's currently running 2nd in class for SP3. E: No sooner than I say that, Manta into the garage. Think it's time for a brake job e2: Rear axle out for the Manta, one of the Falken Porsches gave it a bump and damaged the axle. orange juche fucked around with this message at 01:49 on May 21, 2023 |

SlowBloke posted:While I understand accepting weird entries for entertainment reason, having a trabant running in the same race of a gt3 on a narrow track like the nurburgring is not the best. I think they should cut the main race allowed classes to gt4 and up and move the dacia+manta to a "tcr and shittier" dedicated race. It's not weird it's a whole class. If you only accepted sp9 and sp10 you wouldn't have enough cars on track, as only about 1/3 of the cars are the SRO GT4 or FIA GT3 spec.

SlowBloke posted:I know they are different things, but you cannot deny that, even if it's done on a smaller budget, there is sneer on n24 from a lot of endurance fans due to the feeling that is a circus instead of a proper race. This I don't get, I've never heard of anyone thinking of the N24 as a lesser event. It's less publicized outside of people who are neck deep in endurance racing but among people who know what it is I've never heard something like people looking down at the N24. orange juche fucked around with this message at 12:22 on May 21, 2023 |

Cygni posted:There are only 2 R10 TDIs that are in private hands, the two cars Kolles ran. One sold last year and is apparently in full racing condition, so might pop up in HSR/SVRA some day. Well I'm sure that folks like JMB are keeping an eye on the historic car auctions to see if they can get their hands on one of the more recent Audis, especially one with a Le Mans win under its belt. I believe the R18 is as of yet unsold as it is not under the "Sold" category. As it's in a race-ready configuration the pricetag is probably millions of dollars though, so it might be a while before it gets sold off and sees a track again.

God drat that GTR-1 sounds good fuckkkkkk, gently caress me with your 6 litre cross-plane V8 daddy This is what I get for getting drunk and then rewatching that video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIDgA2TJqWA and the actual race broadcast from that support race, the fact that they found a 333SP to run is amazing orange juche fucked around with this message at 09:49 on Jul 18, 2023 |

One team had welded 2 different car front ends together and had passengers along for the ride. How does that work, you have one car in forward and one in reverse?
